We enjoyed decorating the barn ourselves.
Weeks ahead of time I planted rosemary and other green plants in pots for the tables. I made the table numbers and stuck them into sawed off branch pieces. I painted floor tiles with blackboard paint and wrote on them with chalk markers. Guests were encouraged to write messages on the tiles with chalk. A candle in a canning jar and the menu card completed the centerpiece.
I constructed planters out of rain gutter covers and wired them onto the beams.
The barn was radiant!
The menu included a pig roast!
and cupcakes created by a good friend. Child size chalkboards labeled each variety.
My garden girlfriends created all the lovely flower arrangements in the wedding colors of lime greens, purple, white and dusty blue.
